CEO Shannon Fisher said the demand to enter the telecommunications space as a reseller and franchisee in New Zealand is high. "We have in excess of 30 serious enquiries in the pipeline and we haven't even started a concerted marketing effort yet."
Since officially opening its office in Wellington one month ago Telcoinabox has signed two franchisees, YLT and Creative Telcom.
Fisher said the recession is playing a part in the company's quick success claiming a strong trend of ex-pats and businessmen in need of a change.
"The majority of enquiries are coming from males between their 30s and mid-40s. Some are looking for a seachange like managing director of YLT Steven Brimblecombe who has moved from Brisbane to Wellington to start the business.
A typical franchisee in Australia turns over between A$500 - $700,000 (NZD $600 - $800,000) per annum and system costs NZ$65,000 + GST, Telcoinabox claimed.
Fisher remains managing director of Australian-based Creative Telecom, a privately owned solutions provider part of the Telcoinabox network. Prior to this role, Fisher worked in management, sales and solutions at Alcatel for 16 years.
